Oracle Integration Cloud Service Linkedin adapter.

After being trying some weeks/months ago to make this
happen, finally the Linkedin adapter is working in my Oracle ICS instance.

The adapter supports these operations:

In this blog post we will show the scenario of Status
Update. I think this is a good one, since you can implement something with your
HR department that everytime they open a new position, it can be automatically
updated in Linkedin. Wouldn’t that be great? Or if someone quits or move, but
at the end a new position is opened, then with the upcoming steps you can
achieve it.

The first thing is to login in Oracle ICS and go to the
connection section to create a new one. Then look for Linkedin adapter:

Put a name on it:

Configure your Client ID and Client Secret that u will get
after creating an application in Linkedin:

https://www.linkedin.com/developer/apps

The scope is what you want to use from Linkedin through the
adapter. In this case I am allowing to read the basic profile of the
account, get the email address, share an
update and admin the company. After clicking the Provide Consent button, your
ICS credentials will be prompted:

Click in Log In, and you will get to the Linkedin consent
page:

Take a look to the scopes, are exactly the ones that we
configured at the connection side. After that you will get the following page:

Your connection is ready to be used in any of your
integrations within ICS. So let’s go to create a new one:

We are going to create a hypothetical scenario, where a new
Position is open in HR through Oracle EBS. We are going to use a previous
created EBS connection and select for both the request and response, the
Position object:

After that, let’s just click the Done button:

Now let’s create our target, which is the Linkedin
connection we created previous steps:

We are going to use the Share update operation:

Then click Done:

Now let’s make our mappings. The first is the request mapping. We are
mapping the HireStatus element from EBS to the comment element of Linkedin

For the response, let’s map the Linkedin response to the
folliwng EBS elements:

Our integration is as follows:

Now lets active it:

Check that the ACTIVE button is now green:

Then click on the little icon with an “i” inside, and get
the WSDL url:
